I am L60 at MSFT (TC 160k). I interviewed for Amazon L5. However, they made me an L4 offer (TC 180k). Even if I move, the titles remain the same - SDE1. I am expecting an L61 promotion next September. Should I move or stick with MSFT?
New grad at msft ?
Offer breakdown pls
Stay at MSFT.
When you say expecting promo next September, how do you know...
My boss made it clear that if I deliver the project at hand, promo is on
Stay at MSFT. Don't come in as SDE 1. You will regret it like me. Was probably the biggest career mistake so far for me. So my advice don't do it
61 salary ?
Stick for a year or interview elsewhere. Come as sde2. Otherwise it's gonna take two yrs to get promoted and 3 yrs to reach median sde2 salary.
